I swear by the fortune of Imperator Caesar Hadrian Antoninus Augustus Pius that I have posted in the farmstead a copy of the letter written by the most illustrious prefect Sempronius Liberalis concerning the strangers staying in the farmstead, that they should return to their own homes, and that I have made no false statement, or may I be liable to the oath.

Written by Sa[…], nomographos, with Diodoros, assistant, attending, since he (Pouseimis) said he did not know letters.

About this record's data
- From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
- AI-inferred — the image-analysis panel (deities, names, signs) is machine-generated and may be wrong.
- Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
- Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
- Inherited across the Trismegistos spine — a Trismegistos ID names one ancient text, and papyrology splits that text's description across databases: the edition in one, the date and provenance in another, the physical papyrus in a third. Fields tagged via … on this page were read from a sibling record under the same TM number, not asserted by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
